New Combo PON technology extends best-in-class
density, scalability and flexibility of its TA5000 fiber access
platform
ADTRAN, Inc., (NASDAQ:ADTN), the leading provider of
next-generation open networking and subscriber experience
solutions, today announced that it has added support for Combo PON
within the ADTRAN Total Access 5000 (TA5000) fiber access platform.
With this new capability, the TA5000 becomes the highest density
10G PON solution in the U.S. market. It delivers improved economics
for operators building new or modernizing existing fiber networks
to support the economic and social development of the communities
they serve. ADTRAN’s Combo PON innovation affords service providers
a 75% reduction in space, a 66% reduction in power and a 50%
reduction in capex versus operating with two discrete GPON and
XGS-PON optical line termination (OLT) modules.

“Gigabit services’ scalability and network flexibility are
critical to our ability to be competitive. We need to be able to
launch new differentiated services and enter new markets quickly
and easily,” said Hamid Vahdatipour, Lake Region Electric
Cooperative’s CEO. “With the addition of Combo PON, the ADTRAN
TA5000 becomes a stronger foundation on which to build the fiber
broadband access network our communities need and will thrive on
for decades to come.”
Network operators will now be able to deliver GPON and XGS-PON
technologies over a single common optical distribution network.
This allows both fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) technologies to be
simultaneously deployed from a single advanced FTTH module,
eliminating the need for performance-draining external coexistence
modules. Combo PON makes upgrading to XGS-PON simple and easy,
seamlessly supporting the installed base of GPON subscribers while
blanketing the entire FTTH network with the higher speed and
capacity of XGS-PON. The TA5000 8-port Combo PON OLT Access Module
with integrated coexistence functionality supports the delivery of
GPON, XGS-PON and Combo PON from a common OLT port.
With the addition of this high-density 10G PON module, ADTRAN
unleashes the full capability of the TA5000’s high-capacity
backplane and Nx100GE network interface. The TA5000 supports
greater than 60,000 FTTH subscribers within a single standard
central office rack, while only utilizing 64 home “splits” per
passive optical network (PON).
“Service providers all over the world need to cost-effectively
deploy high-capacity, scalable full-fiber networks supporting
consumer cloud, remote worker, IoT and enterprise applications,”
said Javier Lopez, ADTRAN’s Director of Product Management for
Broadband Access. “We understand that both established and emerging
service providers are making network decisions with decade-long
implications. We believe we are adding new capabilities, like Combo
PON and 100G interfaces, at the right time to help operators
achieve their future network goals.”
